Pub in Barnsbury, in the Good Beer Guide. According to the North London CAMRA newsletter it has temporarily closed, and will reopen on 30 August 2014 as the Hop & Berry.

It's run by the same people (the Three Boozers pub company) as the Duke Of Hamilton in Hampstead.

Inside, it's light and bright, with a hardwood floor and an uncluttered feel. Ales, ciders, and lagers are listed on a board to the right of the bar, and a collection of board games sits on a shelf. There's another room to the rear (with tables already set with cutlery and menus on our September 2012 visit). Several picnic benches are situated on a covered decking area at the front, slightly raised from the street.

Kake visited on a Thursday afternoon in September 2012. There were four real ales on: Nethergate Lord Of The Rings (£3.70/pint), London Pride, Moorhouse Blond Witch, and Dark Star Hophead. A generous discount of 95p on the price of my pint was given on production of my CAMRA member card.

Food is served, provided by Boydens Kitchen; see photo of menu as of September 2012. On our weekday visit in September 2012, a board outside advertised food from 6:30pm to 10pm; it wasn't clear whether these are the food times every day.

Accessibility: A ramp to get in. Once you're in, it's step-free to the bar, ladies' (not sure about gents'), and all the interior seating. There's also level access to a couple of the exterior picnic benches, though no room to pull up a wheelchair. A cubicle in the ladies' has a pull-down baby-changing table; again, though, not sure if this is also the case in the gents'.
